Here's what I cover in this edition of the MTB Strength Coach Podcast:
- High Tension vs. Rythmic Cardio Training: This past weekend I had a "eureka" moment where I suddenly realized what the other cardio component to trail riding is. For years I've been trying to articulate why you can't just pedal your way to better trail fitness and in this podcast I explain why you need to focus on High Tension cardio.
- Book Review: A Fighter's Mind - Inside the Mental Game: This is a book I just finished and it contained a lot of great lessons on the mindset needed for training, achieving greatness and making the most of life. In it the author interviewed great fighters from the past and present and found out what it takes to push themselves beyond "normal" and I found the book to be very inspirational and educational...highly recommended.
